Default Finally lowered on H Techs :)

Took a few quick snaps of the F now sitting on Tein H techs, lowered front only.

They ride amazing, big difference from stock, in a good way. Planning to do the rears also since I did pay for all 4 springs lol.

Got some help from the lil fur ball of course

Do they make the ride less bumpy?

Yea definately more comfy on bumpy roads, yet still solid on hard cornering.

the wheels are actually LFA reps, I had them on my previous IS350 and it fits the F nicely. They measure 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 I do swap to the oem BBS wheels cause I do like them alot also, just a ***** to clean the brake dust off them.

Ill take more pics very soon, thanks guys!

Yes the ride is much smoother than stock springs, yet firm in corners or under hard braking.

I'll take more pics once I return from vacation

It's only an inch drop in the front and 0.7" rear or so. I haven't installed the rear springs yet though, so when I do I'll take a side pic to compare better.
